Ok, sorry for misunderstanding about xdmcp.
Only thing you cannot run is xterm, but rest works fine?
Can you use in the meantime rxvt and/or mxterm? You can get
mxterm from contribt directory on Cygwin/XFree86 server or
its mirrors. New version of binaries should be out this weekend.
Mxterm is same as xterm in xfree86 4.x, except it has MOTIF scroll
bar, which i personally prefer
